ABOUT THE PHILLY SHOW:
The Philadelphia Sportscard & Memorabilia show was established in 1975 in the Philadelphia area as one of the first venues for sports related cards and collectibles. Long considered one of the premier events of its type in the country, the show was held three times annually for many years at the Fort Washington Expo center before moving to Reading, PA. In the fall of 2008, Exton, PA based Hunt Auctions, a leader in the sports memorabilia auction industry, assumed ownership of the show. The event now resides at the Valley Forge convention center in King of Prussia, PA and takes place every March, September, and December.
